About This Home

As of August 2022

Outside, where birds glide between majestic trees and a pretty flower garden is edged with a stone wall, it’s easy to forget that so many conveniences are just a turn or two away! NJ Transit trains and all the services of Route 1 are seconds from this stately, brick home custom-built in 2010. Andersen doors and windows, a tall basement ready to finish and 6-zone heat are just a few features that speak to the quality and forethought during construction. Along with fresh paint and new hardwood floors in many rooms, the kitchen was also just given a major makeover. Quartz countertops now join new upper cabinetry and sleek stainless appliances. Even the washer and dryer around the corner are new! The adjoining family room has a gas fireplace, while the large formal rooms are adorned with moldings and custom Italian lighting. An office behind frosted glass doors is bathed in ample light from one of many bay windows. A full bath on the main level is a smart perk that increases versatility. Upstairs, the main suite is the biggest of 5 bedrooms, with a huge custom closet, a spacious bath with spa tub and vast windows beneath a tray ceiling. Thanks to two hall bathrooms, one of them tiled in marble, no one ever needs to wait his turn. Make sure to note the separate workshop beside the paver patio, which keeps the garage completely designated for cars.
